At 2:00 EST today, we issued an action alert asking all of our
members to e-mail officials in King County, Washington, with an urgent
request
to block the following inciteful ad from appearing on Seattle
buses:

Your response was overwhelming. In the week
leading up
to our action alert, King county officials had received 2,000 e-mails to
asking
them to reject this ad. Within five hours -- by 7:00 pm EST -- our
action
alert had generated three times as many e-mails -- almost 6,000 -- to
these same government officials.

We are thrilled to report that your
voices
have been heard and
that your efforts have paid off. At 7:00 p.m. EST today, King County Executive
Dow Constatine announced a new policy governing advertising on
buses that, among other things,will block the proposed
anti-Israel ad from appearing on city buses. Now that the
anti-Israel ad will not run, we no longer see the need to respond with
our
own ad telling the truth about Israel.

This is a great victory. We are thankful to our friends
in the pro-Israel community who called our attention to this issue and
began
the campaign against these dangerous ads. And we are thankful to all
of you who responded with enough speed and determination to
accomplish the mission so quickly. Your efforts were especially
meaningful on a day when so many of us are so very busy with
travel and shopping before the approaching Christmas holiday.

We wish you all a blessed Christmas,

We believe that the Jewish people have a right to live in their ancient land of Israel, and that the modern State of Israel is the fulfillment of this historic right.

We maintain that there is no excuse for acts of terrorism against Israel and that Israel has the same right as every other nation to defend her citizens from such violent attacks.

We pledge to stand with our brothers and sisters in Israel and to speak out on their behalf whenever and wherever necessary until the attacks stop and they are finally living in peace and security with their neighbors.
